UNITED NATIONS: Drawing UN’s attention to perils of major powers’ contradictory, discriminatory and vague approach to nuclear and security issues, Pakistan has called for transparent and uniform application of policies towards goals of non-proliferation, disarmament and sustainable peace.

“A multitude of disputes and conflicts are lingering. The pursuit of doctrines and policies of containment, balance of power, unilateralism and preemption by global and regional powers, have combined to make the world a much more dangerous and unstable place than ever before,” Pakistan’s permanent representative to the UN Abdullah Hussain Haroon warned. He was making a statement at the 2011 Substantive Session of the United Nations Disarmament Commission.

Cautious | 13 years ago | Reply To my knowledge Pakistan is the only nuclear power that has been caught red handed selling nuclear technology to N Korea, Libya and Iran - further one of the culprits in this atrocious act is considered a hero in Pakistan. As such - I doubt the World give much credence to what Pakistan has to say about "non proliferation".
